OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

keljacmom Ship 4 Div 805~ thank you! you are awesome!
Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 14, 2010 at 9:06pm
I was just thinking... since there are so many divisions and only one of each training station i.e. where they did Marlin Spike (the mock ship) all the divisions may rotate.... ?????
Comment by Debbie on February 14, 2010 at 9:00pm
yes I think little debbie is on our div as well.
Comment by Debbie on February 14, 2010 at 8:59pm
I too am struggling to keep up with our Div# so I changed my screen name to include ship / div - this should help . Maybe other can do the same?
Comment by hismomdeeship7div103 on February 14, 2010 at 8:32pm
Now I have hope for a phone call. I need to write down questions in case he calls so I don't forget to ask. I know I will be so excited that I won't remember anything.
I think I will work on my son's scrapbook tonight.

Comment by Debbie on February 14, 2010 at 7:40pm
Yahoo!! Gotta call form my son! We were able to talk for 35 minutes. Here is the update;
He is doing fine - sounded great, no longer sick, eating well, feeling pretty sure of himself at this point. Passed everything so far (PF, academics, marksmenship) , academic & PFA finals end of this week coming up. Division did very well on the last academic test! Hooray! Individual pics have been taken, he will order his photo pkg this week. Div pic being taken this week. He did confirm that there were several who have not passed the PFA yet and there last chance is this Friday. They are all rooting for each other. Battlestations is at the very end right before PIR - told me to expect my call Thursday morning.
He also shared with me that mine and my husband's letters have been shared with his bunkmates and vice versa - some are funny, some are serious but they all were enjoying all the letters that were sent.
Navyblumom - Our guys have meet! ANd they have acknowledged that we have talked and are staying at the same hotel! My guy says your son is a real nice guy.
We talked about what he wanted to do while we were all in CHicago and his response was - just take me back to your hotel and let me take an hour long hot shower- then find me a deep dish pizza.!!
Besides alot of I love yous and can't wait to see yous - that pretty much sums it up......Happy Valentine's Day to me!!!!
